    Kinnikinnick bread is good...they have muffins, donuts, etc. Foods by George had plain and cinnamon english muffins that are delicious Cybros has rice rolls which we broil and make little pizza bites out of.

    Alot of people don't experience symptoms. Usually the longer you are gluten free the more sensitive you become to it. I did not have reactions to gluten food in the beginning but now I am extremely sensitive to it For people that don't get reactions I think it would be easier to find themselves more willing to cheat on the diet because they do not see...

    The grilled chicken itself is gluten free but the way the prepare it makes it not gluten free due to cross contamination. The crispy chicken is obviously not gluten free so I assume you were just asking about the grilled chicken salads.

    I actually have to agree with everyone who said replace wooden spoons. It is true that wooden spoons retain gluten-they retain everything they are put into so if you used wooden items previously then they should be replaced.

    First, I noticed you said oatmeal? Oatmeal has gluten in it so that would be on the no list. Anything with wheat,rye, barley, or oats. Oats in the US in highly contaminated with wheat. Second, I would recommend a new doctor. Some celiacs gain weight instead of lose it. There is no profile of a celiac because there are over 200 symptoms associated with...

    Don't let it get you down. When I first started pretty much my whole family all looked down on it and didn't think it was the problem and thought I was getting too involved in it and getting my hopes up. I could talk till I was blue in the face about it but they didn't want to hear it...some have got more supportive about it now but some are still really...

    Not all natural flavors are a no...they are just questionable so you need to make sure....in this case it is gluten free

    It is made by Nestle. If there is wheat,rye,barley,oats in it then it will say right on the label. What does the ingredients label say?

    Sometimes it takes people a longer time to heal. I did not feel alot better until month 3 and I wasn't back to normal till a few months after that. Everybody has different healing times and some can be in weeks and others months. It depends on a number of factors jknnej-I get the spray at the Vitamin Shoppe. We usually order it via phone.

    Nope no more nausea Only when I am accidentally glutened. The spray is called Stomach Distress and its made by Liddell. It says on the bottle it is for nausea, cramps, indigestion ...just to name a few...it works like a charm...I was skeptical of it at first but now I don't know what I would do without it...I have just about one for each purse

    I had bad nausea pre gluten free and when I am glutened I get it bad too. I use this homeopathis spray for under the tongue and its seriously like an epi pen for me...I keep it with me wherever I go and it works in 5 minutes or less all the time. For nausea I also use ginger and teas like peppermint Altoids are also good to carry around too.

    What can I say...great minds think alike

    You need to find out if you were tested for celiac...there is a 5 panel test for that. I also recommend getting a gene test done. As I said a biopsy will not guarantee you do not have celiac...it will just show if you have damage at this point or not..it can be a good tool to detect it but there are just certain blood tests that are specific. These tests...

    Oops I was a bit too late I see...

    Open Original Shared Link Here is a link to some gluten free candies in the USA For restaurants the Outback has a gluten free menu upon request. On the McDonalds site they have gluten free products on there too. These food brands will list wheat,rye, barley,oats right on the label or they will be safe. Aunt Nelly's Balance Baskin Robbins Ben &...

    Were you tested for the celiac panel or for a wheat allergy? There are certain tests used to detect celiac that are very specific and then the biopsy is just to see if there is any damage yet..the outcome of that does not necessarily determine whether you are a celiac or not. An allergy test will not detect celiac because celiac is not an allergy. Your...

    Haha celiac3270 your right. If new people got on here to find more info about celiac and just read that part they would think
  18. KaitiUSA
    No...not everyone experiences weight loss, some experience weight gain with celiac. Once you go gluten free it does not mean you will gain weight at all so don't even worry about that. I had bad anxiety and mine got so much better on the gluten free diet....yours probably will but I can't guarantee that because everyone is different. Your body with celiac...

    You could only do certain things. I think you have to be a citizen of the U.S though. Arnold Schwarzenegger, governor of CA, was born in Austria.
  20. KaitiUSA
    Don't go off of the wheat and everything until after the biopsy because going off may change the results. You are not alone in feeling this way. You may feel overwhelmed and out of control but it really gets alot easier with time and it will become a normal part of your life before you know it. This site is filled with wonderful people and alot of them...

    I have heard as well from various sources that eating proper veggies/fruits etc. can help prevent cancer.
  22. KaitiUSA
    There is absolutely no way I would cheat!

    Hey~ The graves disease is in beginning stages so I am not on medication or anything yet. They are just monitoring it every couple months. What annoys me about it is that every test I have had done it has got worse so I'll probably have to get on meds at some point. I know that thyroid disorders are common among celiacs. Do you have that as well? You...
  24. KaitiUSA
    Alot of it is...alot of their ice cream is too. If you email them they will send you a list. If you don't want to do that email me and I can email you their gluten free products.
  25. KaitiUSA
    Is it really that bad? I mean look at other things you could be suffering from. What about alot of people that don't even have food to eat? Does it really matter that we can't have this crap? We can have food that tastes just as good and won't hurt us. For everything with gluten there is something without it too. There are bagels, etc..that are just as...
